Yes, I am sorry I should have said these are jobs that run RMAN scripted
backups on another host.

All,
Veritas Netbackup 6.0 MP5
Windows 2003 Server(32 bit)
I have several jobs that fail from time to time with a status 6 and the
error message is "The backup failed to back up the requested files
". Does anyone have any more information about this error and how
to prevent it?
Thanks,
Frank

Default is your current directory. Does the current directory you're running the command in exist on the client? If not, maybe you want to explicitly give '/' as a filename? > Ok, well how about this, just to make sure we are not insane? > > bplist -C clientname -S svrname -R -l -s 07/1/2008 00:00:00 -e 07/1/2008 > 23:59:59 /path_to_dir_backed_up_by_policy > /$HOME/policy_name_070108 And here you specify the path explicitly. > So my question is, what am I doing wrong or what could I do to get the > information I want which is a breakdown of how much is backed with a file > listing and the amounts next to the file?
